To be honest, I am not sure what the original agreement was. There was no signed contract and in most states even when there is a signed contract you have a 3 day period to back out and get a refund. This happened over 6 months ago. I wouldn't even bother. Since then, I have come to find out that a reputable breeder never attaches a price to a puppy until the puppy is old enough and can be evaluated in regard to its worth. Especially if you are breeding show quality dogs. Not every dog in a litter is a show dog but that doesn't mean he can't be a perfect pet. How do you know at 3 weeks old. She is ridiculous. The nerve of her to require money to hold a 3 week old dog. I was new to all of this at the time. You live and learn. If you want a great dog, there are fabulous breeders out there that have people lined up. They would never rip someone off to hold a 3 week old baby.
